Never rented, very private Watercolor residence with 5 bedrooms, 5.5 bathrooms, a bunk room and a guest retreat over the 2+Car garage. Conservation land to the South, a park adjacent to the North and a vacant lot across the street make this home feel spacious and secluded, an exception in Watercolor. Be sure to look at the 3D Interactive Matterport Virtual Tour in the photo section of this listing. A covered porch leads to both the entryway and a wraparound open-air deck for soaking up the bright Florida sunshine while relaxing on the huge porch swing. As you enter the house there is an open concept family, dining and kitchen area, a powder room for guests and a bedroom with en suite bathroom. This bedroom would be the perfect private office for those working from home. The kitchen area has a huge walk-in pantry and is equipped with a fantastic Jenn-Air Pro Style Appliance package, marble countertops and a marbled backsplash. Off the dining room is a screened in porch, a rear deck with natural gas grill and large patio table for dining outdoors. On the second floor are two large bedrooms that share the porch that spans the entire front of the house. The huge master bedroom is the entire back of the house with a private deck. The master bathroom features a huge soaking tub, large walk-in shower and walk-in master closet. There is also a sitting area/media room and cute bunk room at the top of the stairs. Additional home features include whitewashed hardwood flooring throughout, marble bathroom countertops, tile and stone bathroom flooring with glass tile wall accents and Nest HVAC thermostats, as well as a Nest cameras at the front and side door. This home has been meticulously maintained and gently used as a second home since new. Walking outside to the gated courtyard, complete with gas fireplace, you'll find lots of space for sunbathing or young kids to play safely. There is an outdoor shower for cleaning off from the beach before entering the house and putting away beach chairs and toys in the large storage room adjacent to the shower.

It has a full kitchen, bath, bedroom, and den with its own alarm keypad which can be turned on and off from the master keypad in the house or used as a rental with its own alarm code.
